A former overseas ELL teacher currently in pursuit of a Missouri teaching license in ELL instruction. I have a passion for working with diverse groups of students, and I pride myself in discovering creative and engaging ways to reach students from all backgrounds and abilities. I believe my skills and experiences can fulfill the needs of an educational institution in guiding their students towards achieving their goals.I have experience teaching non-native English learners at a variety of age levels, both domestically and internationally. I am comfortable working with diverse groups of learners, catering to individual needs and providing the necessary resources to succeed inside and outside of the classroom. I have experience planning, developing, and preparing lesson plans and resources using a 21st century approach to learning. I was promoted to senior teacher, allowing me to pass on my knowledge to new hires and became a role model for the company, something I believe I could provide at an educational institution.Direct reports from competency assessments emphasize my enthusiasm for knowledge exploration, intelligence, clear expression, and strong organizational ability revealed in my writing. I am able to easily adjust my strategy to align with the overall goals of an educational institution. I am task oriented and good at following directions. I have high adaptability and can learn new concepts and ideas quickly, making me an ideal new employee. My thoroughness and hard work have led me to do very well in my academics, and my capacity to see the bigger picture and think in the long term has benefited my goal setting and plans for the future.
